Scitech Display Doctor

I posted this message to the Display Doctor newsgroup also, but I thought I would give it a try here aswell:
I have an NVIDIA RIVA-TNT 2 card that I am trying to use with Scitech Display Doctor. The readme says there is vbe, but not nucleus, support for this card. When I try to run univbe or uvconfig, it returns the "No supported SuperVGA chip detected!" error. How do I fix this?

Put simply, you can't. Scitech stopped developing the display doctor (for DOS anyroad) ages ago (about 98). I thought that it might support the TNT 2 (in fact i only just recommended it to someone with a TNT2) but if it doesn't it's tough luck im afraid.

According to Scitech Tech Support their latest version supports both drivers (nucleus and UniVBE) for this card. Nucleus appears to be working okay on my system, I am currently going back and forth with one of them on their newsgroup (scitech.display.doctor.dos) about how to get the UniVBE driver working.
If I get anything really interesting in terms of a response, I'll post it back to here.

guess you were right, here's what the scitech guy is now telling me:
"Hmm... yes, I can see here that some variants of the TNT2 do not work with UniVBE. Unfortunately, we no longer work on UniVBE, so this is unlikely to change."
Summary: You can get a driver called UniVBE and load it from the AUTOEXEC.BAT or you can download Scitech Display Doctor. VESA stands for Video Electronics Standard Association. It's used to access SVGA modes ...
Summary: I urgently need a refresh rate program to set my 800x600 screen to 56hz, so Windows will run at that resolution. I've tried scitech display doctor, but it will not go to a rate that low. can anyone he...
Summary: I have the SiS 6326 AGP gfx card, but it refuses to run VESA software. No High Res in Dos :) I have installed a demo of Scitech Display Doctor 6 and this has fixed the problem. But this expires after...
